Missing partic: where do you send the 1099?

When someone is missing in a plan term and the money is auto-rolled to an IRA, where do you send the 1099-R?

I though it had to be sent to the last known address.

As long as a copy gets to the IRS, the missing participant will likely find out about it.

If the person is no longer at that address, what's the point?

You have to send it somewhere

But chances are it will be returned, just like the unopened distribution paperwork.

And the sponsor keeps it as evidence of the attempt.
